Default Cub Cadet 2086 leaking antifreeze

I have a cub cadet 2086 that has started spurting antifreeze out from the top left of the water pump where it bolts to the motor Now the temperature light is coming on even though the radiator has been refilled. Is the water pump bad or something else?

I had to replace the pump on my 3205 with the same engine and also the thermostat too. It's not too bad of a job. Look at your cam gear while you have it off for any problems and if it is plastic or steel. I got all my parts from TEW. Good luck and lets see some pictures.

Don't forget about all the gaskets too.

Do a "parts look up" because these were from a 3000 series machine and yours is a SGT but they should be the same.

That is very bad, hope you didn't run it long. Antifreeze will take the bearings out in short order. Plan on a complete tear down and cleaning at the least.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
